Before LeBron James playfully nodded to his involvement in Space Jam 2 with his Nike LeBron 17, he shouted out the Fairfax Lions through various Player Exclusive (PE) pairs of his signature line. And while the Los Angeles high school’s team colors first graced a Nike LeBron back in 2007, their (arguably) best cameo was on the LeBron 7, which hits retailers for the first time next week.
Borrowing from the Fairfax Lions’ “Away” jersey, mixed uppers favor a “Black” arrangement. Laces, lateral Swooshes and full-length Air Max units, then, revel in all their “Varsity Red” glory. Just as on the high school basketball program’s uniforms, however, shades of “Varsity Maize” complement the mostly “Bred” ensemble. While only outlining lateral Swooshes, the vibrant Yellow completely takes over medial logos. Flywire and LeBron James-branding across the throat and heel follow suit, though “FAIRFAX” text on latter’s medial side unifies the team’s two signature colors. Down below, the “Black/Varsity Red/Varsity Maize” trifecta is transplanted from 2010 onto the outsole.
Grab a closer look at the LeBron 7 “Fairfax” here below as you await pairs to hit Nike.com on March 6th for $200 USD.
